^This, why would you bother getting £10-15 / month through the company, when we all know you are not using an all inclusive plan exclusively for business in the first place... Be a better man than the MPs and if your are so determined to rip off Hector - there are better ways of doing it.

Three were by far the cheapest when I signed up to them, though not being able to access any data or make or receive calls did become a bit of a problem.

I should have quoted SWB. I meant giffgaff, and other MVNOs (iD), don't offer business contracts

If phone is 3g+ capable then Three's 321.

If phone is not 3g capable then Delight Mobile offering similar 3p/minute, 2p/text, 1p/MB UK rates.

Best I found a few months ago so if any newer/better alternatives I'm all ears. I receive much more calls than I make so better deals will be available for those more sociable than I am where inclusive bundles may keep costs down.

Best UK Pay As You Go mobile deal for contractor

Hi All

Just a quickie question: I want to know if anyone has found a decent deal Pay-You-As-Go for contractor.
I walked into a Three shop, locally and I was confused and dazzled by the sales pitch, I didn't bite.

I already have a mobile contract and I use it for my home and private calls. I am using iPhone 6S plus, however my old iPhone 5s is anguishing in a SOHO drawer at the moment. I want a second phone in order to use for contracting sidelines, probably ad-hoc consultancy. I think it will used much less often than my home mobile. Therefore I was looking at PAYG Sim-Only options. I was wondering what deals other contractors have found.
